Part 1: Dean's Journey as a Crime Scene Reconstructionist
In the shadows of crime scenes and the heart of investigations, Dean, the founder of Jamaica Homes, once donned the role of a Crime Scene Reconstructionist nearly two decades ago. His journey through the labyrinth of forensic surveying unfolded in the bustling streets of London, where he was an integral part of a high-tech forensic team operating under the Metropolitan Police Force.
